Photograph of a redrawn map (from about the 1840's or early 1850's) of altar stations from Mission San Gabriel, California, [s.d.]. Bounded by the following regions: Colina de Montañas del Norte (top), Poyarena (bottom), Los Angeles (left), San Joaquin de Jose Sepulveda[?] (right). Lengthy inscription in Spanish at the bottom of the map.; Inscription on the bottom of the map reads in Spanish, "Para entendes clara y distintamente lo que y sená Sn. Gabriel saque [...] pabra y ponga un plan de pura [...] distica / P[...] te la Rosa castilla se [...]erlama para Los Angeles. Mission vieja [...] da nada Los Nietos no mas [...] tinas Colima / y aun dice que el ultimo año que paga por que vende a los Americanos.

Agazzando tambien San Juan los Yerbas y pasedes / cuente lo que [...] a qualquier B. de Sn. Gabriel Pusos Americanos de la Puenta y bueblito."; "By means of a reading glass I was able to decipher the Spanish inscription at the bottom of the print. The original map seems to have been drawn by a priest at San Gabriel in connection with an arrangement under consideration for sharing the territory east of San Gabriel with another priest named Padre Amable. This arrangement must belong to a period much later than mission days -- probably late in the 40's or early in the 50's. Some of the settlers whose names appear on the map did not receive their grants from the Mexican Government until later than 1842. All I know about Padre Amable is that he was in charge of the parish at the old Mexican settlement at Agua Mansa between 1852 and 1855. It was under him that the Agua Mansa church was built. This was the church, the ruins of which were sketched by Henry Chapman Ford." -- G.W. Beattie
